Artist Statement:

Each element depicted in this piece is essential to growth and life on earth. If any one of the elements were to disappear, the result would be the death of not only our lives, but of one of our most majestic wonders of the world, the grand trees. As such, it was essential to me to include all elements, ground where life begins, fire which cleanses and encourages new growth, water which nourishes and quenches fire and air that circulates for breath.
